We are the Royal Society of Chemistry, the world’s leading chemistry community, advancing excellence in the chemical sciences. We promote, support and celebrate chemistry. At Bluedot we are working together with the University of Manchester’s chemistry department to showcase a simple but vital molecule – water!

Water is essential for life, yet almost 800 million people lack access to clean water. Come visit our stand to find out how chemistry can be used to test water quality and help make it safe. Get hands on with a range of experiments and get your name on our leader board in our filtration timed game.  We will have activities suitable for the very young to the young at heart. Listen to at least 1 minute of science and get a free glowstick!
